FAQPage Schema

How do I validate configuration and branch names for repository plugin workflows?▼

repo-common provides shared utilities to load, validate, and enforce configuration standards across repository skills. It validates branch name patterns, commit message formats, and configuration against strict schema rules, enabling consistent enforcement across branch-manager, commit-creator, and pr-manager skills.

What shared utilities are available for handling commit messages and semantic formatting?▼

repo-common exposes helper scripts that normalize and format semantic data, validate commit message conventions, and extract work-item metadata. These reusable helpers enforce FABER metadata standards and support deterministic shell-script execution across dependent skills.

Can I use repo-common to manage read-only configuration across multiple repository skills?▼

Yes. repo-common handles read-only configuration loading with strict validation and default fallbacks, ensuring secure input sanitization. It centralizes configuration management so branch-manager, commit-creator, and pr-manager skills share validated settings consistently.

Does repo-common work with bash and jq for repository automation?▼

Yes. repo-common is built on bash and jq dependencies and delivers reusable scripts designed for deterministic shell-script execution. It integrates directly into repository plugin skills that rely on bash scripting and JSON data processing.

What validation does repo-common apply to branch and commit patterns?▼

repo-common validates branch names and commit messages against configurable patterns before creation or submission. It enforces semantic conventions and FABER metadata standards, preventing invalid patterns from propagating through dependent repository skills.
